Considering that all mentions of the Mexican-US borders have been removed, that the skip has been relocated to Egypt and the fact no nationality/ethnicity is given to the foreigners my guess is that it was deleted and redone to avoid the immigration debate shitstorm which was already stirring up in the discussion thread. (Partly thanks to me, not sure how I feel about that)

I was wondering why Anubis had apparently switched to immigration law instead of judging the souls of the dead, but you're right. Set makes *so* much more sense. God of deserts and foreigners, among other things.

I like the lawyer aspect, but the over-the-top uncontainable nonsense killed it for me. This needs to show that it's an ancient god, and it needs a rationale for why it's still active in [redacted]. Making it super-keter uncatchable is the laziest and most boring way to achieve this.

Besides, the Foundation has plenty of options for containing this even if they can't capture it. Keeping foreigners away is an obvious first step, and subverting the local police and judiciary is a close second.

Here's the thing. The Foundation people are smart cookies. They know this is a god. This god is willing to cooperate so that the foundation has the minimal resources possible needed to contain this. He's not going anywhere, and if he was it would be a different story. This is a skip where the foundation's most straightforward way of containment is acting as a cleanup crew, which they do in plenty of other skips as well - erase the results of what happens to the people affected by the anomaly, and that's all!

however, I think I will put in a thing about a media campaign to reduce tourism in the area, thanks for the suggestion!
